Buzz Aldrin Reviews "Gravity," Calls Film Remarkable

Buzz Aldrin was the second man to walk on the moon and one of the first astronauts to float in space. So now that "Gravity" has been released, THR reached out to him to find out how accurately the film portrayed the astronaut experience.

"I was so impressed by the portrayal of the reality of zero gravity," he said. "Going through the space station was done just the way that I've seen people do it in reality. I was happy to see someone moving around the spacecraft the way George Clooney was. It really points out the degree of confusion and bumping into people, and when the tether gets caught, you're going to be pulled."

Even though Aldrin "was very, very impressed" with the movie and believes it will motivate the public to continue space exploration, there were still a few inaccuracies.

"The spinning is going to happen -- maybe not quite that vigorous," he said. "[And] we were not as lighthearted as Clooney and Sandra Bullock. We didn't tell too many jokes when people were in some position of jeopardy outside the spacecraft."

Aldrin continued: "If you're looking down at Earth, you're looking through an atmosphere that has a bit of haze in many places and not just occasional clouds. You might need a pretty good spy telescope to see [Earth as well as it was presented in 'Gravity']."
